Hi, I have the Pentair Easytouch control system for my 19,500 gallon pool. It has a two-speed filter pump. I'm trying to figure out what the best filter schedule is for this pool. I currently have it set to go for 10 hours during the daytime daily under the low speed setting. I haven't been...

Hi everyone, I've been testing and managing the pool chemistry for a few weeks now and feel like I'm sort of getting the hang of it. Never had a pool before this. Just tested everything today, here are my numbers: Chlorine: 5 ppm (daily test) pH: 7.8 Free Chlorine: 11.5 ppm Combined Chlorine...

Thanks so much for all your help! I will try your suggestions.

Hello to the wonderful people of this forum! I posted here last week about my super low chlorine, high pH, low CYA, etc levels last week and got super helpful advice. I just moved into a new house that has a salt water pool, and this is my first ever attempt at caring for a pool. I was...

I realized since I was using the liquid chlorine to shock the pool, I could just input liquid bleach into the app instead of adding the SWG information. The app told me to add 30 oz of liquid chlorine to my pool. Hopefully that sounds right

Okay that makes more sense, thanks! I'll see if I can just get the muriatic acid from home Depot then. But I'm guessing I should also figure out a good place to get cyanuric acid

Okay will try it again tomorrow, thanks!

Thank you!! I'm in Bryn Mawr 19010. I'll take some photos of it tomorrow in the daytime, thanks again

So I downloaded the pool math, but I can't seem to figure out how to use it. I don't know the information on my SWG, since the previous owner's didn't really leave me with that information. Really finding this confusing

Turns out I was interpreting it wrong and my CYA is >20. I'm having trouble finding that online. Do you think acid blue or acid magic off Amazon would be okay? Thank you!

I found the CYA a bit confusing. It was basically at the top of the beaker at 20 but there was no room to fill it any higher and I could still see the black dot. So I put 20+ because I assume it needs to be taller to fill higher to lose sight of the black dot. It was my first time doing this...

Thank you!!! Will SLAM it asap

Okay, thanks! Here was my math: 5 drops x 0.5 = 2.5 ppm Free Chlorine 3 drops x 0.5 = 1.5 CC Total chlorine = 4

Sorry, I had this: 5 drops x 0.5 = 2.5 ppm Free Chlorine 3 drops x 0.5 = 1.5 CC Total chlorine = 4 Thanks for the help!

Hi, I just moved to a house that has a salt water pool. Unfortunately, I have zero experience with caring for pools, but hoping to figure it out with some help. I saw the suggestion on this website to get a TF-100 test kit, and just used it on my pool. Considering the results and that this is a...
